And in today's world it's possible for grown-ups to start learning ballet. In my teen years there were absolutely no groups for "old" starters. Only for kids. So we are Lucky :)iepukkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01135426646463980680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8184870.post-59510989471871532092011-11-02T12:06:38.599+02:002011-11-02T12:06:38.599+02:00I wish my mum (or anyone) had taken me to ballet a...I wish my mum (or anyone) had taken me to ballet as a child. Fortunately I had the good idea and sense to take myself there as an adult! Better late than never, just like Iina said. :)<br /><br />The again, I know many who were taken to ballet as kids, but ended up hating it! Maybe the school was wrong, or the teacher or something else. Better to have fantastic teachers now!<br /><br />Your first ballet teacher is always special - if you´re lucky to have found a good one. And you did! :)Johannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06703652246667999345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8184870.post-5079775358530253672011-11-02T08:50:55.718+02:002011-11-02T08:50:55.718+02:00Oh that's very interesting about how and by wh...Oh that's very interesting about how and by who made those choices with such longterm effects! Your mum did quite well! : )<br /><br />The hobbies I had as a kid I quit as a teenager - only to rediscover as a grown-up! And career choice? I chose something complitely not sensible..but my parents always supported me with it, which I highly appreciate. I guess our family always had a positive attitude towards the arts - if that hadn't been the case, I'm sure it would have been harder to make that choice.Iinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05744048957188624969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8184870.post-71781818008932306612011-11-01T13:41:47.019+02:002011-11-01T13:41:47.019+02:00Thanks Iina :)

For example how did she come up with the idea of "putting" me to dance classes. And how did it become ballet and not some other type. <br /><br />It's funny that my current profession got chosen originally kind of same way. I mean, it wasn't me who put me together with flute. But I don't regret it either ;)<br /><br />Have to try scanning soon, because I've been planning it so long!iepukkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01135426646463980680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8184870.post-7735616983332692522011-11-01T11:02:26.576+02:002011-11-01T11:02:26.576+02:00Oh wow Eeva!

How I wish my mum would've taken me to ballet classes as a kid! Oh well - better late than never!<br /><br />I think it's great to start learning all kinds of skills already as a child - it'll bring such joy for the rest of the life! <br /><br />Looking forward to reading your next ballet memory! You and ballet go way back, I'm sure there are a lot of memories to share. Hopefully you get to scan those pictures too! : )Iinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05744048957188624969noreply@blogger.com
